Re: KG4 & KG7 Water pump removal questions?

[jw-in-dixie]

After removing the cover plate (Left-hand threads, turn CW to remove) and the pump impeller, clamp the prop shaft between pieces of wood in a hefty vise, then holding a block of wood against the casting strike with a heavy hammer until the cartridge and shaft come out. That is the normal procedure and it does work. It’s in the book, BTW.
